Summary/Abstract: In my paper, I investigate Heidegger’s Parmenides-interpretations. My question is: what is the relation between them and the Heideggerian interpretation of the so called Likeness Principle – like is understood only by like – which is known especially from hermeneutical texts. I analyse the interpretations of the 3rd fragment of Parmenides in a chronological way and I attempt to accompany the German thinker on his thinking path leading to the German terms Selbe and Zusammengehören that are probably untranslatable within the Heideggerian context. Meanwhile, I intend to reveal the turns and the junctions, which characterise Heidegger’s point of view relating to both Parmenides and the Likeness Principle, and also the differences that could be detected between their Heideggerian reading and an idealistic one. Moreover, the less explicit intention of this paper is the following: helping with the preparation of a future, deeper account regarding the Likeness Principle.
